Over deze film

During the final bloody days of white rule in South Africa photographer Greg Marinovich (Ryan Phillippe) sets out to capture the best and most horrific pictures of his life. During his time in turbulent Soweto he meets Kevin Carter (Taylor Kitsch), and a team of photographers, working for national newspaper The Star, along with Picture Editor Robin (Malin Akerman). The four men become known as The Bang Bang Club. As the chaos intensifies so do the pictures, with Greg winning a Pulitzer Prize for an image of a Zulu man on fire. With tension and violence increasing between Government and Rebels, the four men have to decide how much they are willing to sacrifice in pursuit of the perfect shot. Written and directed by the Emmy winning writer and producer of Gerrie and Louise, Steven Silver, The Bang Bang Club is the gripping story of the final demise of apartheid and the birth of a new South Africa. © Pinnacle Films 2012 (Original Title: The Bang Bang Club)
